thanks, I wasn't aware of that env, makes reproducing these much easier

Wait, quotes *are an operator* ? If so how would I define them? If the
operator returns string, what is the type of its argument? If so that's
even stranger -- most languages they're a hard coded bit of syntax -- the
closest thing I can think of is in C++11 you can add your own string
literal types
Quotes are almost a circumfix operator, but they act a bit more like a
macro by controlling the parsing of the contents. But you can do some weird
things like define your own quote-likes.
perl6 -e ' sub circumfix:<>($v) { "{$v}" } ; say B"foo"B ' #
output: foo
or more verbosely
perl6 -e ' sub ci
You cannot currently define your own quote-like operators. That will come
with true macros (though you could certainly do it via a slang...
everything is possible with a slang). But they are operators. Not only are
they operators, but they nest other operators. vis:
say "These are my args: {@*ARGS
